HOME | A Midsummer Disco

You have long yearned for it.

The sweat on your back, the neon lights disturbing the smoke-filled room like sharp edged razors.

Our lungs are smoke, our feet stomping on the ground to the pulsating base like the heartbeat of a thousand stories, a thousand ideas bursting aflame in bright beams of neon and glitter.

We write the year 1983 and Emerald City welcomes you.

THE WIZARD APPRECIATES YOUR ARRIVAL

A Midsummer Disco is a larp about folklore in a modern world

that is everchanging - and rapidly so.

It is about the stories of an old time, surviving and thriving in the fog of a neon-lit dancefloor, in superhero cartoons and the first videogames.

It's also a larp about a time when the world stood at the edge of extinction in the light of the Cold War.

It deals with a race of immortality and the surreal facing a potential, inevitable end.

In A Midsummer Disco, you play a story in the flesh, a Fae born out of human belief and legends, existing in and between different realms of reality, all of which are affected by the events of the human world.

Different Fae, based on European fairytales and folk stories of all ages, meet at Emerald City - a sort of safe haven and gate between the worlds in 1983 East Berlin.

Emerald City plays with the aesthetic and feel of a half-demolished occupied building at the brink of doomsday, watching the events of the 1980s unfold and anxiously awaiting the end of humanity in the dying light of what could be the last Midsummer celebration.
